FREEDOM by CorePlaya

We're searching for freedom

 

(We're searching for-)

 

And demons we're seeing

 

(We're searching for-)

 

Mama said, "You best believe it"

 

(We're searching for-)

 

And I try to believe it

 

We're searching for freedom, yeah

 

 

 

That's why I gotta keep a strap

 

I want everyone to be set free, we shouldn't be scared to lack

 

'Cause when we're up in these streets you cannot snitch

 

If you snitch you'll die fucking quick and anybody who you with, uh

 

Hopefully one day we can change that

 

And my mama fucking told me, "Why would you even say that?"

 

Tryna take it slow and slow dance, we gon' replay that

 

'Cause hoes replay my past actions to win arguments

 

I've been so down bad lately on my cold-hearted shit

 

I want freedom, if we was free, it would be marvelous

 

But how can we achieve that? Yeah, we suffer in artlessness

 

So I wanna be on my artist shit, I get car sickness

 

When you're not around me it's the equivalent of death

 

I just wanna find peace in me if any is left, uh

 

And somedays we'd rather be dead

 

But I don't wanna die, I think it's all in our heads

 

And we're (searchin' for freedom) we're searchin' for clarity

 

I want everyone to be there for each other and there for me

 

We can care for each other if you care for me

 

We can love each other, it's unfair to me

 

That we cannot be brothers, they stare at me

 

And I could care less what they think of me

 

And yeah, we're searching for freedom

 

Stop the drugs, we was thugs for a reason

 

If we can fix that shit, maybe we can become beacons

 

It's either basketball or rappin' 'bout your heathens

 

'Bout your opps and enemies, and you could die if you ain't careful

 

And I wish we wouldn't be beaten or defeated

 

Or killed on them streets with

 

G-Shocks, and we need to get on our feet quick

 

And we're all ripped into pieces, how can we fix this?

 

How the fuck did we even reach this?

 

The president doesn't give a fuck, he'd call it treason

 

But I refuse to believe we're out of luck, life has a meaning

 

And I know God's watching over us helping us shine

 

I wanna fix all of our goddamn lives

 

So put down the guns and the motherfuckin' knives

 

We can make this shit right, uh

 

And we all pray to Jesus, saviors is who we needing

 

How can we find our saviors? How can we find our saviors?

 

And the state of America is at shit now

 

And nowadays everybody so mid now

 

So how can we fix this? We gotta fix now

 

And if this is how we living, then you can get out

 

And we need to be smarter than the president

 

We gotta fix our shit, to be better than

 

Our enemies can, but then again

 

It's hard when nobody wants to help you, forgive & forget

 

And now we have the internet

 

People being comfortable being bigots without showing they faces

 

Can never say it in real life so they say it on the net

 

Thinking they're safe when they ain't, bitch

 

And our hearts ain't broken, they can be fixed

 

Become good-hearted, I swear, we can win

 

Tryna fight for my niggas and my bitches

 

And I'll do anythang I can to fuckin' win this, uh

 

 

 

We're searching for freedom

 

(We're searching for-)

 

And demons we're seeing

 

(We're searching for-)

 

Mama said, "You best believe it"

 

(We're searching for-)

 

And I try to believe it

 

We're searching for freedom, yeah

 

 

 

Can we fix this? Mama said, "Let me know"

 

And I know it hurts to be lettin' go

 

And I know one day we'll let shit go

 

But not right now with the state we in

 

Fucked up mindsets, let's take this in

 

And I know people is dying, Satan's doing

 

I try my goddamn best to fix what we've ruined, uh

 

And I'll fix all these ruins, I swear

 

And I swear to God I'll always be there, be there, be there

 

'Cause I care 'bout you niggas, I always have

 

I just wanna find freedom, I wan' reunite wit' my dad

 

Even if he don't wan' reunite with me, I still care for him

 

Still will be there for him when nobody be there for him

 

Some niggas say I'm way too kind and I could die

 

But if I die I wanna make sure I improved all y'all's lives

 

Even if I'd die doing it, I want freedom for all of us

 

And I know you want that too, so help me, just help me

 

You know what I'm saying is true, uh

 

Searching for meaning within this fucked up life

 

And I know these shootouts be taking lives

 

So I wan' fix all of that, to make sure nobody dies

 

And I wanna be there for y'all, you know I'd never lie

 

Our world has gone to shit, that's so clear now

 

The times we've tried to fix ain't here now

 

Everybody cannot face they fears now

 

But I'm here now, yeah, I'm here now, I'm here now..

 

I'll be here foreva' tryna fix shit

 

And we was in the slums on our mid shit

 

I feel bad for the kids and all of this shit

 

And I ask my mama, "Is this it?"

 

She said, "Don't lose no hope, don't lose no hope"

 

I live by it everyday so all of us can cope, cope, cope, cope

 

And I know I know I know, you just wanna live without the fear

 

Of being killed and shit for snitchin'

 

For snitching, for snitching, for snitching, woah-oh

 

Is this truly how we're living? 'Cause I think something's missin'

 

And I can fix it, we can fix this, no, we're not beyond fixing

 

And I know hoes get killed so easily

 

And I know that that shit happens so frequently

 

So I'll try to lower the frequency, to make you live your lives decently

 

Decently, uh

 

All I really want is equality but in this economy?

 

And I know you got curiosity, I fucking hate how these white supremacists

 

Think they can kill these blacks without consequences

 

And I'd give my life to fucking find freedom, shit's so comprehensive

 

I want everybody to have a good life, yeah

 

Without that hood life, yeah

 

Give you a good wife, yeah

 

That's what it should be like, yeah
